There is nothing like a great go-to side dish for a quick and easy meal! I've been doing a lot with roasting vegetables--asparagus, broccoli, brussels sprouts... so I figured it was time for a change! The soy sauce mixed with peanut butter gives these green beans a delicious Asian-inspired flavor!

And in only a few minutes, you will have a fantastic side dish for a quick meal!
